Chapter 040

Lucia experienced a pounding headache while lying in the freezing dark room, where her vision alternated between clarity and blurriness. She sensed a force pressing against her veins, as if her body was losing an essential element. The slow draining of her blood from her veins caused her entire body to rebel against the loss of her life force. The drug in her bloodstream prevented her from moving, while it kept her body paralysed in complete helplessness.

The cold metal chair served as her only support while standing. Clamping ropes secured around her wrists caused deep wounds in her skin. The physical bindings on her body were not what weighed most heavily on her. She understood that she found herself trapped in this location under the control of two former allies who now held her captive.

The atmosphere around him grew electric with tension, which seemed to squeeze out all other elements in the space. His senses operated at peak levels while his thoughts moved quicker than his running pace. Each stride Nero took moved him nearer to Lucia until he reached her.The door behind him released muffled noises of fighting, which Nero could already detect: Dante's and Matteo's muffled voices combined with their brief movements in the darkness. The room fell silent after the commotion ended. His heart clenched. It was too late. Or was it?The door approached, and he paused for a split second to let the gravity of his upcoming action sink deep into his body. This was it. Time had run out because he needed to move immediately to prevent the situation from ending.He pushed the door open with one motion and entered the room, where his

The tangled web of lies led her further into a state of confusion.She faced him while attempting to control her breathing as the room's atmosphere shifted with disturbing vibrations. Her frantic thoughts merged with the rapid pulse coursing through her veins.She refused to believe his words despite his repeated attempts at clarification.You cannot expect me to believe your words. Lucia’s voice cracked with frustration. Do you claim I am a counterpart to a divine being? According to your words, we have existed together since the beginning of time. You expect me to believe this despite the fact that I cannot trust you?Nero's eyes showed gentleness, yet his composure made Lucia even more furious. ous. The need

Her footsteps created an endless echo that seemed to press against the walls that surrounded her.The weight of her recent discoveries about the curse and her decisions and sacrifices continued to swirl through her mind as Nero guided her toward a concealed location.“Where are we going?” Lucia spoke with a calm tone, but her words betrayed her nervousness.Nero turned his face toward her with a somber expression. Lucia, you must grasp the complete truth. The curse contains secrets that extend beyond your current understanding.The heaviness of his words made her frown. More? What additional secrets could exist?The hallway led to a wooden door at its end. The door consisted of dark ancient wood, which showed signs of wear, and it held enigmatic symbols that had been carved into its surface.The door radiated a powerful force that caused

Their journey had brought them to this point where they could no longer retreat.Lucia remained at his side with a determined face that also showed her doubts. The divine energy from her sword glowed faintly as she held it tightly while her hand remained clenched around the hilt.The curse that had trapped her existence for countless lifetimes no longer confined her because she fought to liberate herself.“You’re ready, right?” Nero spoke with a low tone while showing deep worry.Lucia nodded her response. At that moment, Nero saw the immense burden she was carrying as she stared at the door in front of her.She was about to confront Lupero, the being who controlled her life through deception and distorted her entire understanding of reality.Lupero was the one who had caused her such extensive suffering.

She carefully held his face to make him meet her eyes. "Nero, stay with me."His eyes opened with a dull expression, yet his gaze remained warm. "Lucia..." His words escaped his throat as a whisper.

This was his last stand.A gust of wind blew through, carrying the smell of burning ozone and something worse—the stench of decay, of the darkness edging closer.Dante's fists clenched, Though he knew the truth deep down, every nerve in his body begged for action. He couldn't abandon this battle."Dante!" The sound of distant thunder was broken by Lucia's voice. She showed up next to him, her eyes burning with desperation, her silver hair whipping wildly. "This is not necessary for you to do! We can figure out another way—""There isn't another option." His heart thumped like

The smell of burning magic permeated the air, the traces of Eldrin's cosmic anarchy still hanging there.Her vision faded, and she staggered backward, clutching the edge of a broken pillar. Every breath seemed to be her inhalation of fire."Lucia!?" Her voice hardly reached the howling winds whirling with unadulterated intensity. She could hear Nero yelling, his voice strained and urgent, some distance away.Her attention then turned to the impossible view before her—a rippling distortion in the air, shifting like liquid glass, opening and closing like a wound in reality itself.Her mind slithered with a deep voice."Do you, child, feel it? Is the ability dormant in your blood?She held her head, a sharp pain cutting across her skull. The voice was not emanating from beyond. She knew it inside her. There was something ancient and deeply ingrained within her. Her pulse throbbed again through her rib

It was this—his time. Everything Lucia and her allies had painstakingly built collapsed with the start of the gambit."Everything is aligning perfectly," Eldrin muttered to himself, his voice hardly audible above the roaring wind that blew through the open areas of the temple.The power crackled all around him, a cosmic force that was both thrilling and terrifying.The unraveling was intensifying, encroaching on reality itself like a sickness.He had meticulously woven the delicate thread of the celestial event he had triggered over centuries, but now it was falling apart, and there was no turning back.His surroundings were starting to change, first slowly, like a ripple in the air, and then mo

She was more than just the Sophia Roselli they were familiar with.But she was more than that. It wouldn't take long for Lucia and the other people standing beside her to realize she was a formidable opponent.Her eyes opened slowly; in the dim light, the slight glow of her irises almost seems unnatural. The air around her was heavy with the weight of her new life.Her body ached as if it were separating from the inside, but each painful movement was a reminder that she was alive living in a way she had never experienced before. The black, twisted magic inside her was undeniably powerful.She stood up, her movements startlingly silent, like a predator preparing to strike, She ran her hand over

This was no ordinary partnership.What she was going to do would alter everything. Powering this immense came at a price, but she was eager to pay it. No, she needed to pay it.

The only sound to break the stillness in the room was the gentle rustling of his coat on the chilly stone floor.There was a noticeable tension in the air, as if the chamber's walls knew about the evil powers Alessandro was about to unleash. He would transcend tonight. Above all, he would ascend and assert the authority that had escaped him for ages.He could approach the item that had been missing for so long—the Heart of Lunaria.

The air around him hummed with the energy of it, an unnatural pull that made his skin crawl.His fingers gripped the hilt of his dagger, the metal cold against his skin. He wasn't sure what haunted him more—the portal's power or the darkness it seemed to call to."You’ve come this far, but are you really ready?" a voice whispered inside his mind, familiar and cruel. "Do you think you can just undo the things you’ve done? Do you think you can really save anyone? Even you?"Dante ignored the voice, clenching his jaw. He knew it wasn’t real, not in the way a person was.It was the darkness that lived inside him, always trying to pull him down, to remind him of the past he couldn’t escape. But he wasn’t going to let it win now.He stepped forward, the ground beneath him trembling.

Lucia would be lost forever.She could not allow it.Lucia’s voice rang out behind her, sharp with urgency. “Valeria, we have to leave! Now!”Valeria’s lips parted, but no words came.
